I've messed this up. I *do* get the test statement to fail, but
it carries on anyway, because of the leading - sign. I've done this:
brains hgs 29 %> rcsdiff -u !$
rcsdiff -u Makefile

retrieving revision 1.1
diff -u -r1.1 Makefile

/bin/sh: test: argument expected
gmake[1]: [test] Error 1 (ignored)
cd testdir; gmake -f Makefile gui VIMPROG=../vim
so I've reproduced this.
I can't find a GNU autoconf macro to test for test, preferring a GNU
version. That would usually work. I found this:
http://www.koders.com/noncode/fid1C9AA0D12BF4232D7ED2DE50745B7AB78FC8F839.aspx
but AC_PROG_TEST depends on AC_PATH_PROG_VERIFY, which depends on
the existence of a working test.
I'm at the limits of how I can help now.
Furthermore, I've confirmed your other results below.:

Yes, I thought it would pick bash, but it seems not.

OK, all the same as yours. What's happening here?

Same as yours. I definitely don't see the message you got. I could
post you a Typescript file, but it's big, and not very entertaining.
I get ALL TESTS DONE, with no complaints about errors.
